The Strange Catch

You walk into The Strange Catch expecting the usual seaside chippy setup, but there's something different happening here. The fish is genuinely fresh, the batter crackles without being greasy, and they've clearly thought about what they're doing rather than just defaulting to the tired formula that most places on the seafront settle for. It's become the sort of place locals queue for—not because it's Instagram-worthy or trying too hard, but because the food is simply better than it has any right to be for a fish and chips shop on West Street.
